The actress said she has something in common with her character in the film. "Gwen is clear on what she wants to do with her life …I think I am in the same ballpark（同一范围）there."
Stone made up her mind to become an actress at the age of 15.But would her parents agree to her leaving school early and pursuing（追求）her dream？ The young girl decided to think outside of the box.
